Tuna fisheries assessment reports provide current information on the tuna fisheries of the western and
central Pacific Ocean (WCPO) and the fish stocks (mainly tuna) that are impacted by them. The
information provided in this report is summary in nature, but a list of references (mostly accessible via
the internet) is included for those seeking further details. This report is a smart PDF so if you click on a
reference within the document it will take you to the figure/section; to return to the page you were on,

The Republic of Nauru welcomes this opportunity to submit its updated nationally determined contribution pursuant to Article 4.2 of the Paris Agreement
under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). This updated nationally determined contribution (NDC) is intended
to cover the time period of 1 January 2021 through 31 December 2030, and replaces the initial NDC submitted by Nauru to the UNFCCC on 17 November
2015.
The Nauru Case Study is based on review of readily available information on the policies, programs and approaches
of Nauru and key development partners, and consultations with Government Officials, community and private
sector representatives, donors and other development partners. It draws together a variety of previous studies,
including policy reviews and analyses focussing on specific sector or thematic issues.
Nauru is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. While the most visible climate hazard in the Pacific, tropical cyclones, rarely affects Nauru, the country is highly susceptible to a range of other climate change-related challenges, including: intensifying drought and heat waves; coastal erosion, ocean acidification; sea level rise; wind-driven waves and king tides.
The 2007 Nauru Demographic Health Survey (2007 NDHS) is a nationally representative survey of 655 eligible women (aged 15–49) and 392 eligible men (aged 15 and above). The 2007 NDHS is the first such survey for the country and one of four demographic health surveys conducted in the Pacific as part of the Asian Development Bank/Secretariat of the Pacific Community Demographic and Health Surveys Pilot Project.
The 2006 HIES was the first of its kind conducted in Nauru. There were mixed feelings from respondents throughout both the mini census listing and HIES which can be attributed largely to the lack of understanding of the usefulness of the data being acquired from these two surveys. The current political atmosphere also had a significant impact
towards the overall response rate and the success of the survey.
The information and data gathered from these waste audits will be used by countries in the Pacific to support the development and monitoring of waste and resource recovery projects and recommend the infrastructure and policy interventions required. The regional dataset will also be used to identify and evaluate potential regional projects that would improve waste management in the region.
Tambu is a well respected concept in Melanesian societies and represents a periodic cultural restriction on harvesting for the purpose of fulfilling customary obligations and restocking resources. As a result it has been suggested as the basis for conservation and sustainability in Melanesia. One species subject to tambu management is the Admiralty cuscus (Spilocuscus kraemeri), an arboreal marsupial endemic to Manus Island, Papua New Guinea, where it is a major source of terrestrial protein for forest-dwelling villagers.
